Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

That was my first guess, but when I sounded out the words as spelled it didn't sound very... tongue-y. Maybe I'm not hearing it right.
Edit: you don't even use your tongue to make the K sound π€
I almost think I do!
...And the comic is more about the character being lispy.
Someone else pointed out the use of the tongue for the K sound.
I used to have a lisp that I took speech therapy for, it definitely didn't sound like I was putting K in everything, but maybe the artist hears it differently than I do
You do use it. You need to press your tongue to the roof of your mouth to make a k sound.
This happens close to the back of your mouth where the molars areβ¦
Huh, fair enough.
I still don't associate the tongue with a K sound π a lisp I feel would make more sense
